Preparing students for success in STEM fields
Co-designed with state leaders, postsecondary educators, employers and expert teachers to meet workforce demand in high-tech STEM fields, SREB’s Advanced Career curricula help students master readiness standards and cultivate the critical thinking, problem-solving, communication and applied academic skills employers value.

Customizable Design and Delivery
All AC teachers attend a Teacher Training Institute for each course they teach. At the TTI, teachers use AC technology tools to complete student projects and assignments. This builds teachers’ confidence delivering AC’s student-centered, project-based approach to learning.
Follow-up professional development, coaching and technical assistance services help AC teachers and schools strengthen their implementation of the AC curriculum and build schedules that support student cohorts and interdisciplinary teacher planning.
SREB also works with high schools, technology centers or community and technical colleges to deliver AC courses in stand-alone or wall-to-wall career academies.
